Pinocchio

Long ago there lived a poor old craftsman named Geppetto who lived all alone.
Geppetto was a very nice man and he spent his life making toys for children. How I wish
I had a child of my own ! So, he made a doll from a piece of fresh soft pine. A blue
winged fairy wanted to reward Geppetto for his good heart. She waved her magic wand
and the little puppet came alive. Wow ! you are the finest puppet I have ever made I will
call you Pinocchio.
After a few days, Geppetto felt that Pinocchio should go to school, so he sold his
only coat and bought Pinocchio a schoolbook. To be like a real boy you must go to
school. Now be on your way. Good bye ! father, said Pinocchio. On his way Pinocchio
met a sly fox. My friend ! real boys dont want to school, they want to sail across to
runaway island where they can have fun and play all day. May be I could sell a ticket for
you ? said the fox. But, I do not have money with me said Pinocchio. The fox say
you can give me your schoolbook . Pinocchio sold his book happily, he was going to be
a real boy and have fun.
Suddenly the blue winged fairy appeared. The fairy say Pinocchio why arent
you going to school ? . Pinocchio say I am on my way to school. And with that big
lie Pinocchios nose began to grow longer and longer. Pinocchio began to cry. The Fairy
say You said a lie Pinocchio whenever you tell a lie your nose will become big.
Pinocchio say I am sorry I promise to be a good boy and go straight to school. The
fairy forgave him, with a sweep of her wand she got back the old nose and before leaving
she warned him. The fairy say Remember one thing my boy runaway island is not a
safe place for children. If you go there you would become a donkey. But Pinocchio was
not ready to listen to her words,without thinking about his father or the fairy, he went to
the runaway island. At first it was a wonderful place to live in. There were games
everywhere, sweets and no one to stop Pinocchio from what he was doing.
After a day of fun he was too tired and he stopped by a lake rest. He dipped his
hand into the water for a drink he saw his reflection. Pinocchio say Oh ! Thats not me !
what has happened to my ears and nose ? How did I get this tail ? . He had grown long
ears, long nose and a tail like a donkey. Help ! somebody help me ! said Pinocchio. Once
again the blue winged fairy appeared. The Fairy say Foolish puppet, did I not tell you
that Runaway Island is not a safe place. Now go find your poor father who weeps for
you. With a wave of her wand, the fairy made the donkey ears, long nose and tail to
disappear. She sent him down to the seashore where Pinocchio saw Gepetto drowning.
Father! I am here. Thinking only of his father, Pinocchio jumped into the water and saved
his father. The fairy came and say Pinocchio now do you realize that being a real
person means loving and caring for others. You true love for your father has rewarded
you. Yes, Pinocchio was not anymore a puppet made of soft pine but of flesh, blood and
bone. His father sayAt last ! my wish has come true. Pinocchio lived with his father
happily there after.
